The JLow report gets the valuations from a transfermarkt - I get that clubs will be forced to sell assets this summer due to the pandemic but it has seriously undervalued some players and can’t help but think it’s lazy Journo work. I like JLow but this was a nothing more than a ‘what if’ story.
Fact is in our situation, everyone is available and may be sold to balance the books. However players will still be valued accordingly. Prem teams will still pay money if they want the player.
Olise - forget what people are willing to pay, if he has a minimum release fee he will be sold for that
Moore - still a 8-10 million defender
Rino and Laurent - again 8-10 million with both having good seasons for us
Meite - £10 million plus and we should hold for this. I think this transfer may be the one that most clubs look at along with Olise
Joao - cash in, first season that could be described as ‘prolific’ in his career. 10-15 million, looking at what other transfers have gone for into he past and taking Covid into account
Swift - whatever we can get with his injury record. He’s my favourite but we have to be realistic that his cost outweighs the benefits of keeping him around. 5 mill
Rafael - 2 mill, good back up keeer to promoted sides or a Brighton type
Would then look to build the team again if academy players and loans. For one minute I don’t think all the above will go but these are more realistic fees
